A
40 year veteran of the music business, Tommy
Dardar is a consumate vocalist, as well as a true blues harp
master. Dardar plays a powerful brand of swamp rock steeped in the traditions
of Louisiana Zydeco and blues masters such as Bobby Bland and the legendary
Jimmy Reed.
Tommy
Dardar recently finished his regional tour of the Southwest United States in support
of his latest release "Fool for Love". Produced
by Tony Braunagel (Taj Mahal), the
CD was cut over four days in Los Angeles, and features former
members of Bonnie Raitt's backup band.
From the swaying grace of the title cut, to the all out stomp of Voodoo
Queen, this CD cooks from start to finish! It is a steaming
cauldron of creole swamp blues rich with the traditions of all the
styles that Tommy and his band bring to the table. Tommy's Music moves
you and makes you want to move, whether to celebrate your joy, or
bury your pain. Please check out the samples on the audio page and
experience for yourself the magic of Tommy Dardar.
